Installing the HBasic documentation

Short summary

You may download the HBasic documentation as a rpm package or as a compressed tarfile from www.sourceforge.net/projects/hbasic. Use the following commands to install this packages:

*.rpm package
rpm -U HBasic_docu_*.rpm

*.gz
Unpack with gzip -d HBasic_docu_*.gz
Install with tar -xPvf HBasic_docu_*.tar

*.bz2
Unpack with bzip2 -d HBasic_docu_*.gz
Install with tar -xPvf HBasic_docu_*.tar

Since the documentation became larger (especially the pictures in it) I started to separate them in separate package. You can download and install HBasic without this documentation package. Whenever you want to read the documentation feel free to download and install it later.

To install HBasic documentation download hbasic_docu.tar.bz2, hbasic_docu.tar.gz or hbasic_docu.rpm

Install docu package with

1. step: uncompress with 

bzip2 -d hbasic_docu.tar.bz2 for a *.bz2 package or 
gzip -d hbasic_docu.tar.gz for a *.gz package

and untar with

tar -xPvf hbasic_docu.tar

Install the rpm package hbasic_docu.rpm with

rpm -U hbasic_docu.rpm

This will install the documentation pages in the directory /usr/local/hbasic/doc. You may start the help_window to display the documentation with a mouseclick on the Help windowtoolbar button in the HBasic toolbar.
